Definitions

  • This invention relates to high strength polyamide yarns, as well as a process for preparing these yarns.
  • High strength polyamide yarns are known and are for example applied in tyre cords, air bags.
  • the yarns may be prepared from for example polyamide-6 or polyamide-66.
  • tenacity values is a measure to define strength.
  • Fiber tenacity can be measured, e.g. by a STATIMAT 4U automatic tensile testing machine, according to ASTM D885-04.
  • STATIMAT 4U automatic tensile testing machine according to ASTM D885-04.
  • EP2264235 discloses yarn for air bags comprising polyamide, in which the single fiber fineness is 1 to 2 dtex and in which strengths are reached of around 8.5 cN/dtex.
  • a yarn comprising a copolyamide in an amount of at least 90 wt% with respect to the total weight of the yarn, which copolyamide comprises a) at least 95 wt% by weight with respect to the total weight of

  • the summed amount of monomeric units derived from X,Y and Z is between 0.1 to 4.5 wt% with respect to the total weight of the copolyamide and wherein the yarn has a tensile strength of at least 80 cN/tex as measured according to ASTM D885-04.
  • Wt% is understood to be percentage by weight.
  • molar ratio of monomeric units derived from X : monomeric units derived from Y is between 0.8 and 1.2, preferably between 0.9 and 1.1 and even more preferred between 0.95 and 1 .05.
  • the monomeric units derived from X and Y are present in essentially equal molar amounts.
  • a yarn according to the invention exhibits higher strengths as compared to a yarn which are made from a homopolyamide. Another advantage is that the yarns can be prepared by a simple process.
  • homopolyamide herein is understood a polyamide which consists essentially of monomeric units derived from hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid. This polyamide is also referred to as PA-66.
  • a copolyamide herein is understood to be a copolyamide which comprises besides a majority of monomeric units derived from hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid, further monomeric units derived from a diamine and a diacid and/or an aminoacid. These further monomeric units are thus different from hexamethylene diamine or adipic acid.
  • Such copolyamide may be denoted as PA-66/XY, in which X refers to a further diamine and Y refers to a further diacid or PA-66/Z, in which Z refers to an aminoacid or PA-66/XY/Z.
  • a copolyamide is to be distinguished from a blend, which is for example denoted as PA-66/PA-XY or PA-66/PA-Z.
  • a blend is prepared by mixing two polyamides, whereas a copolyamide is prepared by mixing monomers which subsequently polymerize to a copolyamide.
  • monomers is herein understood a molecule that when chemically bound to other monomers forms a polymer.

  • the cyclic monomeric units derived from diamines X are monomeric units derived from C6 to C20 cyclic aliphatic diamines as listed above, as these exhibit a higher reactivity and are easier built in a copolyamide.
  • Suitable cyclic monomeric units derived from dicarboxylic acids Y include for example:
  • aromatic dicarboxylic acid such as naphthalene-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, naphthalene-1 ,4-dicarboxylic acid, isophthalic acid (I), terephthalic acid (T),

  • the yarn comprises a copolyamide in an amount of at least 95 wt% with respect to the total weight of the yarn, which copolyamide comprises a) at least 95 wt% by weight with respect to the total weight of
  • copolyamide monomeric units derived from hexamethylene diamine and adipic acid and

  • a lower titer of the yarns allows weight savings, but also allows for example more compact, better foldable fabrics prepared from the yarn, such as for example in applications of air bags.
  • low titer yarns are preferably used in combination with a high tenacity.
  • the usage of 450 dtex to 500 dtex yarns typically requires a yarn with a tenacity of at least 80 cN/tex.

  • HAS HAS of at most 8.0 %, preferably at most 5.0% and a tenacity of at least 80 cN/tex, preferably at least 85 cN/tex, and a titer of between 200 dtex and 700 dtex, preferably between 300 dtex and 500 dtex.
  • bobbins containing the yarns were conditioned for at least 12 hours in a 55% relative humidity 23°C atmosphere.
  • Tensile strength of fibers also known as tenacity, is measured according to ASTM D885-04 and given in cN/dtex or cN/tex. The measurement was performed using STATIMAT 4U automatic tensile testing machine.
  • Fiber titer also referred to as linear density, measured in dtex, is defined as weight in grams of 10000 meters of yarn. The titer can be measured by weighing a piece of yarn of a known length, usually 20 meters, on a balance with accuracy of 0.001 g and then recalculating the weight of 10000 meters of yarn. In practice, the titer measurement is automated and performed by STATIMAT 4U as well.
  • Hot air shrinkage is measured according to ASTM D4974-04 at 177°C for 2 minutes using Testrite shrinkage measurement instrument under a load of 5 mN/tex.
  • a process for preparing a yarn according to the present invention generally comprises the following steps and is further referred to as process A:
  • composition comprising a copolyamide to an extruder and melting it, optionally mixing with additives, such as stabilizer or pigment, to obtain a molten composition;
  • the molten composition is extruded through a spinneret to form filaments, which are subsequently stretched, cooled and combined to form at least one yarn;
  • the at least one yarn is subsequently subjected to a drawing process at a temperature of between 25 °C and 265 °C to a draw ratio of between 4 and 6.
  • the drawing is carried out at a temperature between 50 °C and 215 °C.
  • the drawing may be performed, e.g., by means of pairs of heated draw rolls, heated hot air ovens, etc;

  • the at least one yarn is wound up.
  • the at least one yarn is wound up on a bobbin.
  • the composition is molten and, if necessary, mixed with additives such as for example stabilizers, pigments, in an extruder (01 ) and further extruded through a spinneret (03) to form filaments.
  • the filaments (05) are cooled, drawn and combined to at least one yarn between the spinneret (03) and take up rolls (07).
  • the yarn is heated up by a pair of rolls (1 1 ) to a temperature between 50°C and 80°C and drawn 2 to 3 times in air gap (12) between pairs of rolls (1 1 ) and (21 ). Then, the yarn is heated up by a pair of rolls (21 ) to a temperature between 120°C and 245 °C and drawn 1.35 to 3 times in air gap (22), between pairs of rolls (21 ) and (31 ), resulting in a draw ratio between 4 and 6.
  • the drawing steps are followed by heat setting and relaxation: the yarn is heated up to the temperatures of 200 °C to 245 °C by a pair of rolls (31 ) and relaxed by 0% to 10% in the air gap (32) between the pairs of rolls (31 ) and (41 ). Finally, the yarn is wound up on a bobbin by a reel device (91 ).
  • the yarn according to the invention is preferably made by a process, hereafter referred to as process B, which comprises the following steps: Providing a composition comprising a copolyamide to an extruder and melting it, optionally mixing with additives, such as stabilizer or pigment, to obtain a molten composition;
